According to Media Whores Online, former journalist Wolf Blitzer is starting to question some of his own polls...when they don't skew the way he wants them to:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wolf Blitzer featured a poll on Monday's program:

When it comes to Iraq, whom do you trust more: The Bush administration or the UN?

The result:

Bush administration: 32%

UN: 68%

After reading the results, Wolf introduced Lou Dobbs, whose program follows Wolf's. Lou made a point to ask, "Wolf, let me ask you a question...Do you trust that poll?"

Wolf responded, "no," and a good laugh was had by all.

Why did Lou Dobbs single out this poll among all others for ridicule?

Of course ALL online polls are self-selectively bogus, and no respectable news network should feature them. But this poll happened to yield results that aren't too far off from results of a scientific poll asking essentially the same question, reported by Bill Schneider on Monday's Inside Politics:

Bush Administration: 47%

UN: 47%

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Schneider failed to comment that, when you exclude African-Americans, women, poor people, actuaries, Union members, bubble boys, people who still think that REO Speedwagon "totally rocks", hookers, people who actually work for a living, Hispanics, lesbians who used to work for Coors until their dad became the Vice President, albinos, and, well basically everyone who isn't a CEO of a oil company from the poll, a whopping 99%* support President Bush and war with Iraq. The guy who didn't support Bush is like gay or a communist or something.
